To find the essence of a world philosophy, look for its adjective. Language dreams. We find ourselves experiencing in words, on the inside of words, secret movements of our own.
— Gaston Bachelard, The Poetics of the Space
The poet writes, not so much to express, as to create a thing which will operate upon the reader’s consciousness to produce the emotion of poetry. The content of the poem is what it does to the reader, not what it communicates.
— Clement Greenberg, Towards a Newer Laocoön
 
 

Interior with red sofa is a journey into the reading space, a swing into a personal rhythm. A slow down into the insignificant detail of the passing of the page, and the caressing of the words by an immersed gaze.
